The intolerance and hostility directed at trans and gender diverse people carries a heavy toll, not just the terrible number who die violently each year, but also those whose lives are lost through self harm or from the lack of appropriate services.

#TransDayOfRemembrance was set up to remember Rita Hester (pictured), who was murdered in 1998. Organised by Gwendolyn Anne Smith, who said the day is: "Not something to trot out ... and forget about. We should be working every day for all of us."

Photos of a gaunt Rock Hudson sparked tabloid gossip, confirmed by his publicist in July 1985.
Rock Hudson had AIDS.
President Ronald Reagan first mentioned AIDS publicly in September, two months later.
By this time 24,000 Americans had died.
Rock died 15 days later.

Rock Hudson was born on this day 100 years ago.
He was the epitome of the handsome, seemingly hetero, Hollywood star.
AIDS outed him and killed him.
He died in 1985, aged 59.
His death shocked the world. For many, he was the first person they knew of to die as a result of HIV.

Being raised by people pleasers is pretty insidious. You look back positively on what appeared to be a relatively low-conflict childhood, but you realize — as an adult — that you assume everyone is lying to you at all times to maintain peace/spare feelings because that's just How It's Done.™ 🙂

This is Archie. He's deaf and doesn't hear when his humans get home. Luckily, his little brother Frankie lets him know with a gentle nudge to make sure he doesn't miss the moment. 14/10 for both (TT: melissamilne)

‘Nickname’ is not ‘nick’ + ‘name.’
It was originally ‘ekename.’
‘Eke’ was the Middle English word for “also” or “in addition.”
Since ‘ekename’ began with a vowel, people used ‘an’ before it.
Over time, 'an ekename' became 'a nickname.'
